When Carey was three, her parents divorced. During elementary school, she excelled in subjects that she enjoyed, such as music, art, and literature, but did not find interest in others. Carey worked as a waitress for various restaurants, usually getting fired after two weeks. While requiring work to pay for her rent, Carey still had musical ambitions.
After signing to Columbia Records, she released her debut album, Mariah Carey (1990), which spawned four number-one singles on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart: "Vision of Love," "Love Takes Time," "Someday," and "I Don't Wanna Cry." Following her marriage to Sony Music head Tommy Mottola on June 5, 1993., Carey became the label's highest-selling act with the albums Music Box. On May 30, 1997, the couple announced their separation. Carey was in a three-year relationship with singer Luis Miguel from 1998 to 2001.
Carey met actor and comedian Nick Cannon while they shot her music video for her song "Bye Bye" on an island off the coast of Antigua. On April 30, 2008, Carey married Cannon in The Bahamas. At 35 weeks into her pregnancy, she gave birth to their fraternal twins, Moroccan and Monroe, on April 30, 2011 via Cesarean section. In August 2014, Cannon confirmed he and Carey had separated a few months earlier.
On January 21, 2016, Carey and Australian billionaire James Packer announced that they were engaged. By October, however, they had ended their engagement.
Marriah Carey is a Christian. According to her: "I do believe that I have been born again in a lot of ways. “Whatever God wants to happen is what's going to happen. It's by the grace of God I'm still here." She said.
Throughout Carey's career, she has collected many honors and awards, including the World Music Awards' Best Selling Female Artist of the Millennium, the Grammy's Best New Artist in 1991, and Billboard's Special Achievement Award for the Artist of the Decade during the 1990s.
